5 Reasons to Sell Now in the Greater Lansing MI Real Estate Market



Many sellers are still hesitant about putting their house up for sale. Where are prices headed? Where are interest rates headed? Can buyers qualify for a mortgage?  These are all valid questions. However, there are several reasons to sell your home sooner rather than later. Here are five of those reasons.  

Have more questions?  Let us help! MacIntyre & Cowen, RE/MAX Real Estate Professionals, Grand River specializes in Residential, Luxury, Relocation and New Construction Home Sales.  A consistent top producer, the MacIntyre & Cowen Realty Group is #1 in Market Share in the Greater Lansing MI area, ranked 119th by the Wall Street Journal and part of a nationwide network of Platinum Agents.  Serving the Greater Lansing MI and Mid Michigan areas including Greater Lansing, Haslett, Okemos, East Lansing, Grand Ledge, Holt, Williamston, Mason, Eaton Rapids, Dimondale, Dewitt areas and more.

1. The Most Serious Buyers Are Out Now
Most people realize that the housing market is hottest from April through June. The most serious buyers are well aware of this and, for that reason, come out in early spring in order to beat the heavy competition. These buyers are ready, willing and able to buy…and are in the market right now!
2. There Is Less Competition Now
Housing supply always grows from the spring through the early summer. The choices buyers have will continue to increase over the next few months. Don’t wait until all the other potential sellers in your market put their homes up for sale.
3. The Process Will Be Quicker
One of the biggest challenges of the 2014 housing market has been the length of time it takes from contract to closing. Banks are requiring more and more paperwork before approving a mortgage. As the market heats up, banks will be inundated with loan inquiries causing closing timelines to lengthen.  Selling now will make the process quicker and simpler.
4. There Will Never Be a Better Time to Move-Up
If you are moving up to a larger, more expensive home, consider doing it now. Prices are projected to appreciate by over 19% from now to 2018. If you are moving to a higher priced home, it will wind up costing you more in raw dollars (both in down payment and mortgage payment) if you wait. You can also lock-in your 30 year housing expense with an interest rate at about 4.5% right now. Rates are projected to be well over 5% by this time next year.
5. It’s Time to Move On with Your Life
Look at the reason you decided to sell in the first place and decide whether it is worth waiting. Is money more important than being with family? Is money more important than your health? Is money more important than having the freedom to go on with your life the way you think you should?
You already know the answers to the questions we just asked. You have the power to take back control of the situation by pricing your home to guarantee it sells. The time has come for you and your family to move on and start living the life you desire.
That is what is truly important.
